The 2017 NFL Draft, Day One Game-Day Thread

If Howe has time to post them you know we are 10 minutes or more behind. Why does the NFL do that? Such a BS move.
 
You have an infinitely better chance that neither Garoppolo or Brissett never play a meaningful down in 2017 than you have of either of them winning a Super Bowl and that is a fact. I'll bet you a thousand dollars that Brady doesn't get injured this year vs. Garoppolo winning a Super Bowl.

People are going insane about the back up QB position. Trade Garoppolo and get Ryan Fitzpatrick. He can be a solid starter for a handful of games. If Brady goes down longer than that, odds are the Pats aren't going to win the Super Bowl anyway.
Fitzpatrick? Cmon now...
 
surprised no O-lineman taken yet, usually by this time of the draft, there are 4 or 5 off the board....must be a real weak class
 
Those Bama players clearly have injury concerns
 
Jimmy G will be our starting quarterback in 2018-2019. Brady will be playing his last season. That's the only explanation

Now that is the only way it make sense not to trade Garoppolo if other teams are offering multiple first rounders. There is no way that both Jimmy G and Brady will be on this roster in 2018.
 
The Browns trade has me thinking they're going to get Jimmy G. You'd expect Bill B to be more interested in more picks in the later 1st and 2nd than in #12 and fewer other picks.

We'll see what shakes out, but hard to not see the Browns avoiding a QB and trading down for more picks as a move for Jimmy G.
 
Fitzpatrick? Cmon now...

Fitzpatrick is an excellent back up QB. He is an awful starting QB. Look at his history. He almost always looks great when he steps in for another QB who gets injured. It is when he plays more than half a season when he is exposed as horrible QB.
 
When Schefter first announced that the Pats weren't trading JG, he said he'd still be on the roster this summer. I thought that was very interesting phrasing.
 
Jimmy G will be our starting quarterback in 2018-2019. Brady will be playing his last season. That's the only explanation
That would,be a good topic for a thread. I disagree though. He's insurance. No one knows what the future will hold.
